GiroIdent is explained for the “GiroIdent Basis” variant. The two additional variants are described in the last chapter.

GiroIdent provides a complete web-based solution for name verification ready for integration into webshops and other applications. GiroIdent provides the complete part of an onboarding or checkout process, in which a name verification is required, including a web user interface.

GiroIdent verifies a name given as an input parameter against the name stored as the account holder of a bank account. In order to get the account holder name, GiroIdent connects to a given bank account using credentials that the end-user provides.

Webshops and other GiroIdent customers are called “partner” in the rest of this documentation. Developers who integrate GiroIdent into their apps are called “partner developer”. A “user” is an end-user/consumer who is using the partner application.

How GiroIdent works for the user

GiroIdent is integrated into the partner application, for example in the checkout process of a webshop. GiroIdent provides the web user interface for the connection to the bank. The following illustration shows an example web flow of GiroIdent in a webshop.

The pages shown to the user by GiroIdent are the following:

How GiroIdent works technologically

After GiroIdent has been integrated into the partner application, the technological process of using GiroIdent has the following steps:

  1. Partner application calls GiroIdent service "Create Check“ with the parameters Name and Result Redirect URL. GiroIdent returns a GiroIdent Redirect URL.

  2. Partner application "sends“ (redirects) user to GiroIdent Redirect URL.

  3. The user follows GiroIdent UI and grants GiroIdent access to her bank account.

  4. Once GiroIdent is finished with fetching and analysing account data it redirects the user to the provided Result Redirect URL of the partner application.

  5. The partner application checks the GiroIdent result using the "Get Check” service and displays the result on the Result Page.
